I was looking for a budget Sound Bar for < $700 and was strongly considering the SONOS as I have a dealer friend that was going to sell them to me at cost. However, after my research I found that while it offered outstanding music clarity in a 3.1 configuration, it did not support 5.1 nor 7.1 audio both of which were deal breakers for me. It also did not include a sub nor satellites and even if I were to get them as add-ons, the price would skyrocket.
